    What helped you in your first year / semester of nursing school?

    Annachu512 replied to Cheripk's topic in General Students

    Annachu512 replied to Neisha_'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Frontier Midwife school with a low undergrad GPA?

    Annachu512 replied to owlRN01's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Annachu512 replied to Mrs.Boochie's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    MAR is medication administration report. That's simply what meds to give and when. Is that really all that is being asked? Asking for some help is okay but I agree with other posters that this should...

    Annachu512 replied to LaurenRay1983's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Sure, just remember; try not to over complicate it! It really is simple math. Just setting it up can be confusing. Easiest formula is amount of fluid over an hour divided by the minutes in an hour...

    Annachu512 replied to Lauraash's topic in General Students
